A huge pot has shifted the balance of power now into the last level of the night.
There was a limp before Jeffrey Hobrecker made it 7,500. Two people called, including Tony Angora and Kurtis Boutelle in the small blind, before Vinnie Ho made it 22,000 to go from the big blind.
The limper folded, Hobrecker called, as did Angora and Boutelle. Boutelle then jammed for 17,400 on the 
flop. Ho made it 80,000 and Hobrecker pushed in for almost 200,000 total. Angora let it go and after a minute in the tank, Ho called with the 
, holding a gutter and a flush draw.
Hobrecker had the 
two pair and Boutelle the 
ope- ender. Boutelle got there on the 
turn to take the 135,000-chip main pot with his straight. Ho bricked the 
river to hand Hobrecker the massive side pot and the chip lead.
